Permanent Full Time Contracts
Leicester School of Pharmacy
Faculty of Health and Life Sciences
Grade F-G £28,289 - 40,335 (starting salary dependent upon qualifications and experience)
The Leicester School of Pharmacy is advertsing two permanent posts in Pharmaceutical Technologies (start-date October 2007). These posts will be open to scientists and technologists with backgrounds in the physical and chemical sciences (including material science, chemistry, engineering, and physics). Applications will be particularly welcome from candidates with expertise in emerging or niche areas that will make a significant impact in the pharmaceutical sciences. These areas include (but are not restriscted to) novel methods and functional materials for drug delivery; advanced characterization methods for pharmaceutical material sciences, or new approaches in process engineering and control (including process analytical technologies).
These positions represent an exciting opportunity for dynamic and enthusiastic individuals to participate in the growth of an expanding, multi-disciplinary School of Pharmacy and to enhance and develop the research strategy of the School (which includes drug delivery, pharmaceutical material science and pharmaceutical processing and analysis, cancer drug therapy, and cellular pharmacology). The successful candidate will be expected to make a full contribution to teaching at both undergraduate and postgraduate level and participate in School administration, as required.
Appointments for these posts will be made on the Lecturer to Senior Lecturer scale, depending on experience. Candidates appointed at Lecturer level will already possess good research and publications records. They must be able to make a clear and positive contribution to the Research Assessment Exercise and External Income Generation. Candidates appointed at Senior Lecturer level will already possess an impressive and independent track record in research, including success in winning grants as principal investigator and an excellent publication record in high-ranking journals.
Application packs and further information for candidates are available online at the DMU website.

Interview Date : 6 September 2007 (Note this is a revised date, and has been changed from 11 September as appears on the published advertisements on job.ac.uk etc.)
